The Supreme Power Behind a Wheelchair Chapter 62: Let Me Shatter to Pieces
But George and Eleanor went silent. Bitter. Damien didn’t react. He just lowered his head. Accepting.“Because I honestly thought he was cheating on me,” Celeste continued, her voice shaky. “And using my money to party with some other woman.”A few distant cousins held their breath. Damien still said nothing. A faint crease formed on his forehead.“But…” Celeste turned to her husband, her eyes glossy, “he asked for time. Time to prove the accusations were false.”“With instant wealth?” Adrian cut in for the first time that night. “Doesn’t that just prove he’s hiding something way bigger?”Margareth slammed her hand on the table. “If his wealth is legal, then why the hell did he drain all your savings in the beginning, Celeste?!”Celeste didn’t answer her grandma. She just looked at Damien again. She didn’t know either—he’d never told her. Not until now.“This is your chance, Damien. My decision depends entirely on your honesty. What exactly have you been doing for the past three years
The Supreme Power Behind a Wheelchair Chapter 63: That Letter Reeked of Fear
Damien pulled the crumpled paper from the car window and tossed it in the trash like it was something filthy. The rushed, slanted handwriting was nothing new. More threats. Accusations. Provocative nonsense trying to rile him up.This time, he just ignored it.“Child’s play,” he muttered, starting the car and driving off calmly.To Damien, only cowards hid behind anonymous letters. If someone had a problem with him, they should come straight to his face, look him in the eyes, and say it out loud. Not this crap.Celeste didn’t say a word the entire ride back from the Stratton villa. Her hands clutched her little purse tightly in her lap. She stared blankly out the window, never once looking at Damien, who drove in complete silence.Of course, she was still in shock.Damien—her husband—who had been in a wheelchair for nearly four years, now stood tall. Strong. Solid. Like a soldier back from battle. No… stronger, more alive. Celeste felt like she was sitting next to a stranger wearing h
The Supreme Power Behind a Wheelchair Chapter 64: The Silver Necklace of Wild Dogs
"Damien Harlow, come out!"Damien was already outside, just to find a bunch of sharply dressed men standing in the courtyard. Their faces were cold, dangerous. Around them, the inn's guards—his own men—were lying beaten and bloody on the ground.But what really caught his attention was the silver necklace hanging from each of those intruders’ necks. It was their identifier—a symbol of the Valasta mafia. The same notorious group that had its dirty hands all over the underground world, even the entertainment industry.The name Adam Saxon immediately popped into Damien’s mind. He smirked in disgust."Who the hell are you guys, making a scene this early in the morning?" he asked, tone calm but sharp. He already knew nobody good came knocking this early without a reason.“You cocky bastard,” one of them snapped. “Don’t you know who I am?” The guy said his name like he was announcing a goddamn king. “David Cross, the top dog of the whole entertainment biz in Valasta.”Damien gave a cold smi
The Supreme Power Behind a Wheelchair Chapter 65: The Forgotten Wounds
Celeste was stunned. The gentle kiss Damien gave her was so sudden, it made her heart race. It was the first time she had felt such a soft touch from her husband, who was usually cold and quiet. They had been married for almost four years, and throughout that time, Celeste only knew Damien as a calm man, who didn’t ask for much and almost never complained. But during this honeymoon, something was different."Breakfast this morning could be opened with a kiss, right?" Damien whispered teasingly, his moist lips facing Celeste's face.His breath was heavy, and Celeste’s eyes widened. She could only blush, her gaze fixed on Damien’s eyes, which now seemed softer than usual.Damien smiled, satisfied with her reaction. "I’ll change clothes, then we can have breakfast together," he said as he stood up and headed toward the room.Celeste stood frozen, somehow feeling the urge to follow him. Without thinking, she walked toward the room where Damien went. The door wasn’t locked, and as she slow
The Supreme Power Behind a Wheelchair Chapter 66: Fire Beneath Viremontis
|You think he’s just some disabled ex-soldier? Nah, Damien Harlow is a damn storm—one that’ll wipe out anyone not ready to fight.|Adam Saxon froze mid-step. His breathing was heavy, eyes locked on the wide window showing the darkening sky. The map of Viremontis laid out on his desk looked calm... too calm. Ironically peaceful, considering the heart of his dirty empire had just been obliterated.His phone buzzed in his hand, but he ignored it. His head was filled with rage, humiliation… and the sting of losing. For the first time in ten years, Adam felt like he’d been stomped on.“What the hell do they mean ‘everything’s been shut down’?” he growled.He spun around and slammed his hand onto the desk, sending a crystal glass crashing to the floor. Reports flashed across the screen—asset seizures, warehouse raids, his people getting booted out. All of it pointing to one cold, calculating hand—Damien Harlow.“I should’ve killed him first...” he whispered darkly.The office door creaked o
The Supreme Power Behind a Wheelchair Chapter 67: The Gift Returned
Denny Cross—legendary Major, leader of an elite unit feared by both enemies and allies. The guy was tall, broad-shouldered, lean but ripped like an old wolf who’s never lost a hunt. His eyes… cold, black, and deadly.His heavy black boots pounded against the asphalt with every step. Each one felt like a death sentence closing in on Adam.Adam stumbled back a step, clutching his suitcase, trying to piece together what to say. But before he could even get a word out—Smack!Denny grabbed him by the collar, yanking him up so hard Adam could barely breathe."Tell me where my son is!" Denny roared, his breath hot and rough against Adam’s face."Major... c’mon, let’s just talk inside," Adam gasped, trying to survive both the physical and mental pressure.Denny glanced at the big suitcase Jules was dragging behind her. "You running away?" he asked coldly. "You hid my son and now you’re running like a coward?"Adam shook all over. "No! I... I’m looking for him too, Major. I swear.""He was la
The Supreme Power Behind a Wheelchair Chapter 68: Destroying Them Slowly
When Denny Cross opened the front door to his house that night, it was like his life split into two—before and after. His son, David Cross, wasn't whole anymore."What... the hell...?" he choked out, voice cracking.The porch lights shined down on David’s pale face, his lips were turning blue, and his legs—God—his legs were bent at angles no human body should ever be. No screaming, no crying for help. Just pure silence... and that blank stare. The stare of someone who wasn’t even really there anymore."David!" Denny dropped to his knees beside him. "David, son! Who did this to you?!"But David just kept staring up at the dark sky, like his soul had already left his body.Three hours later, the entire Cross mansion was packed with doctors, nurses, and cops.But none of them could change the brutal truth: David’s legs were completely shattered. And the prognosis wasn’t good."He might never walk again, Mr. Cross," one doctor said carefully. "The damage is... extensive."Denny slammed a

Chapter 61: A Dinner Gone Wrong
[You can’t judge someone just by what they show on the outside. Tonight, masks will fall, one by one.]As the main course was served, the room filled with chatter. But each word carried a subtle sting.“I heard you started a new company with your dad, Celeste?” Uncle Theo asked casually.Celeste smiled politely. “Yes, Damien and I are working on it with my father.”“Impressive. Damien seems pretty influential now, huh? Funny, last time we had dinner...”“Just a poor, useless son-in-law. Remember his parting words that night? So ridiculous!” one of Celeste’s aunts chimed in. “He said he’d stand by Celeste no matter what. Wow... guess what? He actually did, in less than a year!”Damien cut in smoothly, “I’ll take that as a compliment. I just support whatever Celeste decides. She’s the one in charge.”The room stiffened. Jealous looks were thrown their way. Then one of Celeste’s cousins muttered, “Still can’t even stand on his own though. What’s all that money for? No one knows where it
